Does anyone know the date of the Alton Winterfest? If I recall, it's usually around this time of year but I haven't seen anything about yet.

Hi....The winterfest is on Saturday Feb 19th. Please see the calendar entry for this date on the forum calendar, and under the list of forums under "Outdoor Activity" you will find a thread on the Winter Festival. About in the middle of the thread (post #7 in that thread) you will find the schedule of events from the flyer. Hope that will help you plan your day, and we look forward to seeing "on the bay". Think great weather!!!!!
